Fit for Work Medicals | LATUS
A fit for work medical is a health assessment
that determines if an employee is physically
and mentally fit to perform their job duties.
Several Industries require workers to have a
medical assessment prior to them starting
work on a particular site or role. These
medicals are required for individuals
undertaking a role that puts themselves
and/or others at high risk of injury or ill
health. For example, working at height or
driving a heavy goods vehicle.
Assessments are designed to assess if an
individual is fit enough to undertake a
particular task or job role. Whether they
are just joining a company or their role
has changed or their health has
changed, the employer needs to
determine if they can still safely
undertake their job.
Depending on the safety implications,
more in depth and specific testing is
sometimes required. There are clear
pass/fail criteria.
